About the author

Czech-born poet, playwright, and novelist, whose central themes were religious faith, heroism, and human brotherhood. Franz Werfel's best-known works include The Forty Days of Musa Dagh (1933), a classic historical novel that portrays Armenian resistance to the Turks, and The Song of Bernadette (1941). The latter book had its start when Werfel, a Jew escaping the Nazis, found solace in the pilgrimage town of Lourdes, where St. Bernadette had had visions of the Virgin. Werfel made a promise to "sing the song" of the saint if he ever reached the United States. He died in California in 1945.

Reviews

[Jim · Rating 4 out of 5]

A deeply effective telling of the story of the puppet Emperor Maximilian who tried to do good for the people of Mexico but only managed to do wrong. Benito Juárez is a major character without ever appearing on stage. In its English translation, the play is moving and poetic.
